If the swing is in direct sunlight, is it too hot on bare legs?

No, not that I've noticed and I've sat on it in the sun. Maybe because it's powercoated?? It's a really comfortable swing despite it's appearances, I get compliments all the time.

The metal does get pretty warm. I bought a cushion to sit on and it works great.

no-it is very comfortable, although I have not used it in direct sunlight. I do use it in 90 degree weather in the shade and it is very comfortable.

I have to say that I love my swing. I have only had it since around April, but so far it is doing very well. I live in Oklahoma where it is sooooo cold as well as uber-hot, but it is on a covered porch. It comes assembled so that is no problem. The matching rockers were a little difficult though. Still... I love them as well.

It is hard to guess. We only use this small space heater on our outdoor patio to heat an outdoor swing. We have ours hanging from the inside of the overhang/roof, facing directly onto the swing, which is about 5' away from someone sitting on the swing. When I sit next to the swing, I don't receive any heat, only immediately in front of the heater on the swing itself. So my guess is no, but for our needs, it has been fine.

well, the sun does not appear to be an issue; it gets to 100 degrees here pretty regularly but these are mesh so they dont really hold the heat; not a problem

My set is in the sun, near the pool. I do keep an umbrella open all season long, and for that reason I think this helps.I have not had any complaints about the chairs being too hot from family or guests.

I am not sure. Ours is in Maine on a deck in direct sun and held up well this summer but might be different for you with intense heat.

I would say yes it would be too hot-there isn't any ventilation and it isn't durable enough for outdoors unless you keep it on a patio with shade.

Vertical pointing straight up is Full HOT, Horizontal pointing towards the front of the sink is full COLD. Full swing is 90 degrees. You should have no issues.

I think 60 degrees, I really like it, its far heavier than the PW requirs not as much swing

We haven't noticed that our swings get sticky - but we live in Washington State and the weather isn't 'hot' usually. I wonder if the weather in a particular region might affect the swing?

I haven't noticed it getting hot but I have cushions on the seat. It doesn't seem like it would get too hot but my patio doesn't have direct sun. The chairs seemed to be higher than typical bar height and were a little tricky getting in them. It looks great sitting on my patio hahaha

Yes it does get to hot to use when sitting directly in the hot summer sun. Ours is in the direct sun but I personally don't like sitting out in the hot sun. I prefer sitting on the bench when the sun goes down. We wanted a bench that did not require maintenance and so far this bench has proven to be just that. We have been pleased with this bench.

Probably just where the legs are, but I'm only guessing. The paver bricks that we have it on don't get hot at all but those would definitely kill your grass!

I've had my sunset swing for six years. The only time I had an issue was when the wind gusts 25 mph or more. The fabric top can be easily removed if there is a forecast of high winds

I bought the chair and swing this summer. The high humidity and weather changes do not seem to have been a problem. We are not planning on treating the set. The only piece that has changed is the table which is made of pine not cedar.

No, you can get 110 degrees at most. No closer will give you a 180 degree swing, it is a physical impossibility.
